What's happening? Welcome to Wong Notes podcast. I'm your host, Corey Wong. Today on the show,

0:07.9

it's a solo venture. I put out a little tingy on my Instagram, the Wong Notes podcast, Instagram,

0:14.4

saying, come at me with your questions. We're doing a Q&A. I get a lot of the same questions from people

0:19.9

online. I would say probably 60 to 70%

0:22.6

of the questions I get are all loosely in the same realm. So I'm going to answer many of those today.

0:27.6

of those platforms.

1:42.3

1:44.5

with accounts even just starting at 1999 a year per artist. So for me, I have several albums out.

1:51.4

I just pay one amount for the year. For all the Cory Wong albums, I just pay one amount,
